dking Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Three days after a league game I have the FA cup final, three days after that I'm playing in the EUFA cup final and then two days after that I have another league game. So that's four games in 8 days including two finals, at the end of the season. I've not had fixture congestion like that all season and now, when I'm playing two finals this happens. The bizarre thing is that in another save, where I'd won the Capital one cup and got to both the FA, and EUFA cup finals this didn't happen (I did have to play it three days after a league game), but in this save I got knocked out of the Capital one cup in the first or second round. Can't be right can it? Edit - I just checked the dates in reality and they're correct, but wouldn't there be some sort of allowance made? It's an insane set of fixtures which could well see me end up winning nothing as I'm three points off the league leaders as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I had this in my last season. I think there would be some movement in real life in the OP's case, sometimes I wonder what it takes to get matches re-arranged due to fixture congestion on FM.

dking Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 Utd just drew in the league so if I win my two remaining league games I win the title. Do I play my second tier in the EUFA cup final and go for the league? Or do I go for a cup double and second place in the league (probably)? It's my first season and second would be a massive over achievement, especially with two cup wins. What a conundrum! Edit - and I just realised that I have another game two days after the league game after the EUFA cup final. So that's five games in ten days including two cup finals. Wow, just wow.

lam Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I had 4 games in 8 days too.... though I don't recall them being finals. What upset me about mine was that I was playing Arsenal and our game was moved because it clashed with their Euro game, which was three days after ours. However our game was moved to within TWO days of MY Euro game........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generation-Next Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Well I won everything. Both cup finals and the league on goal difference. Need linkage proof. Since everyone keeps complaining about this 'End of season burn out' when the tactics go wrong and everyone gets injured (I'm joking, good effort) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
